CYCLONE: automated design and layout of RF LC-oscillators

This paper presents an automated, layout-aware RF LC-oscillator design tool, called CYCLONE that delivers an accurate and optimal LC-oscillator design, from specification to layout. The tool combines the accuracy of device-level simulation and finite element analysis with the optimisation power of s...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	This paper presents an automated, layout-aware RF LC-oscillator design tool, called CYCLONE that delivers an accurate and optimal LC-oscillator design, from specification to layout. The tool combines the accuracy of device-level simulation and finite element analysis with the optimisation power of simulated annealing algorithms and is verified with experimental results.
